Both the 2023 Ford Mustang Mach-E available at the Stivers Ford Montgomery and 2023 Tesla Model 3 are five-passenger vehicles, but there are some notable differences that we believe are in favor of the Mustang Mach-E. It provides more than 43 inches of front legroom or 0.6 more than the Tesla. It also provides more than 38 inches of rear legroom. That’s about 3 inches more than the Tesla. There’s also more headroom in the back seat in the Mustang Mach-E, and we think that makes it a more comfortable experience for adults. The Model 3 trunk is impressive at almost 20 cubic feet. But the Mustang Mach-E provides you about 30 cubic feet of dedicated cargo space and, of course, more convenient access.

Tesla is known for its advanced technologies, but one of the ways it has made the Model 3 so affordable is that it does include much of what is include with the Model Y, for instance. In fact, the base package for the Mustang Mach-E is far more robust with Tesla only including its 15-inch touch screen—the Ford has a 15.5-inch touch screen—and its Autopilot tech, which isn’t actually autopilot and just a fancy name for its adaptive cruise control system with forward collision mitigation. Enhanced Autopilot is available, and Ford includes its BlueCruise system with the California Route 1 and up.
